I am often asked can we have all of our Medicare patient’s sign an advance beneficiary notice of noncoverage (ABN) on their initial appointment to protect us in case our Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) denies any of our services as not medically necessary? I am also asked that once a Medicare beneficiary reaches the annual therapy cap dollar threshold ($1960 for physical therapy and speech therapy combined and a separate $1960 for occupational therapy in calendar year 2016), can I have the Medicare beneficiary sign an ABN even though I feel the therapy services are medically necessary to protect us in the event my Medicare contractor denies the services as not medically necessary? This 1 hour webinar will answer all of the above questions, discuss routine use of the ABN, provide specific examples when providers would use an ABN for Medicare beneficiaries receiving outpatient therapy services, and provide completed examples of the ABN for outpatient therapy services.
